A federal judge on Tuesday ruled that patients injected with tainted drugs produced by a Massachusetts compounding pharmacy are not entitled to recover restitution from a pharmacist convicted on racketeering and fraud charges stemming from the 2012 outbreak.
U.S. District Judge Richard Stearns in Boston largely rejected the prosecution’s request to have Glenn Chin pay $82 million to cover the expenses incurred in relation to 379 patients injected with New England Compounding Center’s drugs.
